well - not that we need any other reason at all, this is enough to sustain any friendship! but! - shanice is best friends with laetitia and i see there may be some connection there too? she's a bit abrasive, brought up between london and new york, loved acting and wanted to be great at it but got stuck when she committed to hollywood and is still trying to work out where she fits in (if she even does) so i'm definitely prepared for some people to not like the fact that she's so open about what she hates and how she doesn't have time to indulge people who annoy her. but i'm also prepared for some people to like that, so it's all about where mischa would stick, depending on tish and whether that changes her opinion on grace. (it shouldn't, she's right.)
